Bylaws

NFA will not seek or accept any authority in connection with the registration of floor brokers or floor traders that exceeds the authority granted to NFA in the initial Commission orders authorizing NFA to perform certain floor broker and floor trader registration functions or any other authority sought or accepted by NFA under the terms of this Bylaw, without the consent of contract market directors representing two-thirds of contract market Members.
